Early Vasas: A History of Sweden 1523-1611 by Michael Roberts

Book Description

This comprehensive history of sixteenth-century Sweden has remained a standard work for English-speaking historians since its publication in 1968. It is now available in paperback for the first time. The book includes a full account of the reign of Gustav Vasa (1523-60), one of the greatest rulers of his age, and of the half-century after his death that paved the way for Sweden's emergence as a great power. Professor Roberts provides an account of the course of the Swedish Reformation: he analyses those trans-Baltic entanglements which were to assume such importance, both for Sweden and for Europe, in the next century; and he pays particular attention to the constitutional controversies which reached their climax, though not their end, with the deposition of King Sigismund and the 'Bloodbath of Linkoping'.

"[The author] argues that the global economy remains in the throes of a depression. Making the case that the profitability of capital is too low, and the debt built up before the Great Recession too high, [he] presents his case that this depression will persist until the profitability of capital is restored through yet another slump"--Back cover.

Written by two experienced college teachers from the USA, this is the only entry-level textbook on the subject currently available. The authors begin by explaining some basics in membrane biochemistry, hormone biology, and the concept of receptor based signaling as the main form of communication between cells and of cells with the environment.
